I’ve seen the same thing. Seems like the new behavior is to just let me login, play, and it will get what it needs in the background and automatically update on next launch.

Makes sense not to bother me to update a 0.1 release change after launch (unless it’s urgent) when I just want to play Tetris.

Isn’t this the same behavior web browsers use? Background download and update on next launch?

Not complaining, I prefer this update cycle as default.

I got a good laugh on this take on the FF XI experience. And then I laughed again when I saw this was an AI image of a 20 year old game.

Yes, your escrow can go up that much if your property tax, school tax, or in some cases insurance had a sudden jump in value or changes in what can be claimed. It varies by area and loan, but isn’t unheard of.

I get the joke, but did the person writing this have a stroke halfway through writing it?

While I don’t follow the current eSports Call of Modern War Battle shooter game, I believe they may be making fun of certain team players of said game who called themselves “Lethal Company”… but now this name is more commonly associated with a different online multiplayer indie game that is more popular.

Although I could be wrong. I am not an AI

Check out one of the Fedora spins if you want to go Wayland.

Yeah, this is a pretty sad bait for Internet points. The AI BOTs are getting lazy.

Official company policy being printed and posted on the refrigerator… totally legit. SMH

Makes me think about what I should prioritize… network transfer or local storage.

I started using Fedora / GNOME as my daily driver on my laptop for a few months and can see where this change may be coming from. I really like how clean GNOME is and it works really well with smaller single screens (laptop) and multi-touch input /w gestures… but the reason I haven’t switched my desktop over is because I can’t see how that same design philosophy translates to a desktop environment with just a mouse and keyboard.

Trying to figure out how to manage background applications like chat programs, soft-phones, and even email seems to be an uphill battle with GNOME.

Or the whole Internet! Cough FA

Yep! Welcome to the unfiltered real internet… (and I’m saying that as a positive thing).

While Crystal Dynamics didn’t specify which content it’s referring to, it’s speculated that it could be the animalistic depiction of Pacific Island natives in Tomb Raider 3, who are implied to be cannibals.

Like the fictional Indiana Jones style villages? Or the real life North Sentinel Island Sentinelese? I’m scratching my head too…

That may have been the intention but I can’t find any which have panned out. Mozilla is straddling that weird line of operating both a non-profit and for-profit entity… and as a for-profit incubator for the next big thing, they have a pretty terrible track record.

Honestly I’m actually a little happy about this. I feel Mozilla needs to focus on its core job of advancing its browser and web standards so we don’t get stuck with Chromium-only world (like when us old timers had to deal with Internet Explorer holding the majority market share).

These side projects like running VPN services and social networks may have the best intentions but have had to pull from their limited resources. I would prefer they get spun off as separate projects instead of pulling resources from the parent company.

Please don’t use that guide. That’s the old 2.x line of SteamOS which hasn’t been updated since 2019 and is based on a very old version of Debian. The SteamOS that the deck uses is 3.x and has also moved from Debian to Arch. Valve really needs to update that page.

If you want to build your own SteamOS machine, take a look at something like HoloISO (https://github.com/HoloISO/holoiso) which is built on the current branch of SteamOS with the deck-exclusive OS/hardware items swapped out for standard kit.

I can’t wait to have TherionArms at my party!

Jack of All Trades, Master of None

Anybody know the name of this character? “Six Shooter Cat” or something?
